I've searched for this and can't find it. Does anyone know the keyboard shortcut that automatically selects the current text in the browser URL window and copies it? I used to use this a lot for blogging and the like and now I can't remember it.

Any help would be appreciated.

Command-L highlights the URL, and if you continue holding down the Command key and press C it will copy it.
I'm not aware of a single command that copies the current URL (that's not to say there isn't one).

The Safari help has a summary of most shortcuts.
I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it.

I might be remembering wrong, and maybe it was just for firefox or something, but there was one key combo that selected the url of the current page and copied it to the clipboard.

I'll keep on digging. I used to use it for throwing links in my blog.
Thanks for the help though guys.
